The Vandals

The Vandals - Behind The Music lyrics

rate me

Well we finished up the record

And we think that it's the shit

And we want it to go huge

But to play it off legit

And the guy at A&R's

Got the CD in his car

And he thinks that tracks four

And six are contenders

But the play lists are so tight

That we gotta do this right

But we've got a good feeling

So we're gonna take a meeting

With the radio promo

And the marketing homos

To see if we can get a green light

So we waited by the phone

And they finally let us know

That the label is quote:

"Really excited"

This could be the big one

Time to celebrate perhaps

Our fate is in the hands of strangers

Going gold or down the hole

You can kiss my ass

Sp we got a couple stations

Wanted medium rotation

But the P.D. isn't sure

If the single's gonna work

Cause he's gotta play the Cure

And the Psychedelic Furs

For the 80's flashback weekend

And our ad's are in the trades

And a video got made

And it cost a hundred grand

But we never got it played

We're trying to hit the road

But the agent doesn't know

If there's enough in the budget

For tour support

So we're playing local clubs

And we're trying to get a buzz

And we got a good review in

Music Connection

This could be the big one

Time to celebrate perhaps

Our fate is in the hands of strangers

Going gold or down the hole

You can kiss my ass

In a last ditch effort

Just to rally up the troups

We ignored our last statement

Seven figures unrecouped

Cause we're in it for the art

But we'd like to see it chart

In the Billboard Top 1000

So we give it our best shot

And the label says your dropped

And the drummer quit the band

Now he's working for his dad

Now we're holding auditions

That boy's good

Give him the job

This could be the big one

Time to celebrate perhaps

Our fate is in the hands of strangers

Going gold or down the hole

You can kiss my ass
